this will disable -M and -x.
I understand that someone might want to re-implement "ls" with clisp and
this will prevent him.

Nevertheless, I believe it is important that someone who receives a
clisp-based application can get a clisp repl by merely typing
$ app -x '(saveinitmem)'
$ app -M lispinit.mem
or just
$ app -x '(saveinitmem "clisp" :executable t)'
$ ./clisp
